💡 Other examples

Via custom path:

purge({
    paths: ['resources/{js,views}/**/*.{blade.php,svelte,vue,html}']
})

Via custom paths + always keep #bruh, .nice-button and h1 styling:

purge({
    paths: [
        'resources/views/**/*.blade.php',
        'resources/{js,views}/**/*.vue'
    ],
    safelist: ['bruh', 'nice-button', 'h1']

Example config with fix for escaped prefixes (sm:, lg:, etc.):

purge({
    extractors: [
        {
            extractor: (content) => {
                return content.match(/[a-z-_:\/]+/g) || []
            },
            extensions: ['php', 'vue', 'html']
        }
    ]
})
